The Triangle Song

Here's a little GCSE Maths revision for you guys!

Lyrics:
So you think that you know triangles
But do you really, do you?
Did you know that some have right angles?
And thats when maths gets to you
The longest side is the hypotenuse
The others are adjacent and opposite
To remember the formula you gotta use
Just try to remember what rhymes with it

Chorus:
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Yeah A squared plus B squared equals C squared

Have you heard of Soh Cah Toa?
Its very useful you know
Theres many rhymes I could show ya
Or you could make one up on your own
The S it stands for sin
The C and the T for cos and tan
Remember all this and youll be fine
And if youre stuck well give you a hand

Chorus:
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Yeah A squared plus B squared equals C squared

Theres a little thing called the sin rule
Its gotta be my favourite
Its clever and its pretty cool
So let me tell you all about it
Side A over the sin
Of the angle opposite to it
Is the same as any other side
Over the sin of the angle, you can do it

Chorus:
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Yeah A squared plus B squared equals C squared

Now dont forget similar triangles
Its easy if you know what to do
Keep the ratios from getting in a right tangle
And then the maths will see you through
Some formulas are very important
Youll be given them in the real thing
Just look in the front of your exam booklet
And if it helps you could always sing

Chorus:
A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Yeah A squared plus B squared equals C squared

Challenge yourself, you can do it
Dont stop working hard
See the top and reach to it
I know you can get that A star

Chorus:
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Cause A squared plus B squared equals C squared
A squared plus B squared equals C squared
Yeah A squared plus B squared equals C squared
(repeat Chorus once)
